Milena – Italy

Martoke was friendly, and very knowledgeable and a wonderful guide to show us around Salamanca. We really enjoyed this tour and would highly recommend it to familiarise yourself with the beautiful town.

C
Christian – Finland

Martoke is very knowledgeable about the history of Salamanca and the architecture of Europe in each century. We enjoyed the walking tour and the stories behind each monument in Salamanca. We have very little knowledge about the place and this tour makes our stay more exciting. We recommend this tour for everyone especially for those who enjoy smaller groups.
